Frank E. Moss U.S. Courthouse

The Frank E. Moss U.S. Courthouse is located at the corner of Fourth South and Main Streets in the Exchange Place Historic District. The five-story joint court and office building has a gray granite exterior in the Art Modern Style, and is the oldest structure in the Exchange Place Historic District. The district’s impressive commercial architecture was created during the last quarter of the 19th century as a direct outcome of the wealth produced by Utah’s silver mining industry. Shopping and entertainment can be found nearby at the City Creek Center (three blocks to the north) and Gallivan Center (one block to the north).

The Frank E. Moss U.S. Courthouse was originally constructed in 1905, and two subsequent building additions, in 1912 and 1932, have doubled the building’s size. The building is architecturally significant for its introduction of the Classical Revival Style to Utah.
